200 young people from over 10 European countries discussed the future of Europe at Castle Forchtenstein.
A kind of youth summit took place at the beginning of the Austrian presidency of the EU: the young people talked about their ideas and wishes for Europe.
Potential partners and sponsors could get more information about the work of the organisation at an open day that also took place. There was also a flash mob of European young people at the main sqare in Neumarkt.
“EYFON is to be understood as a meeting place for the youth of Europe. The European idea of peace and togetherness may be old, but a glance at what is going on in the world shows that the idea of a peaceful and solidary Europe is more topical and necessary than ever! It is up to the young people of Europe to shape this path to a secure, peaceful, and stable future. EYFON should contribute to making Europe more tangible for them”, says EYFON President Christoph Leitl.
“We give young people the opportunity to feel Europe with all their senses and shape its future together,” points out EYFON CEO Christian Buchmann.
